Welcome To The Granite Belt Motel
Hayley and Fraser welcome you to their family run business. Whether travelling for business or pleasure, guests who stay at the Granite Belt Motel, often return time and time again, taking advantage of the great location, comfortable surroundings and good old-fashioned friendly hospitality. “Our philosophy is that guests are not just visiting the Granite Belt, they want an experience that they will not forget. With this in mind, we couple contemporary accommodation with our extensive local knowledge to help visitors make the most of their stay.”
Location
The Granite Belt Motel is perfectly situated in Stanthorpe for the ultimate escape to the Granite Belt region. Located a two and a half hour scenic drive from Brisbane or under two hour drive from Toowoomba, the Granite Belt is famous for its wine, tranquil landscape and hospitality. Our motel is located on the main street of Stanthorpe but positioned away just enough to maintain an intimate atmosphere. We’re also just a short stroll from one of Stanthorpe’s best kept secrets – the Sentimental Rocks nature reserve .
Motel Features
At Granite Belt Motel, we pay particular attention to the details because we know it’s the details that make a difference. Modern touches in our rooms include luxurious linens, custom-made coverlets, espresso pod machines, slim fit wall mounted televisions and complimentary wifi.
Outside you’ll find a generous outdoor entertainment area complete with BBQ and seating, undercover parking for vehicles and established garden with our very own vine for guests to hand-pick grapes.
Above all else, we like to keep things local and support our beautiful town and the people who live here where possible.

Sentimental Rocks
Hidden away and just a 3 minute walk from our Motel, Sentimental Rocks is what we like to call our “mini Girraween”. The rocks are a collection of giant granite boulders that were formed millions of years ago by a volcano. Over time, weather has slowly chipped away at the rocks, leaving the large granite boulders balancing on top of each other as they can be seen today.
Few visit Sentimental Rocks as it’s even unknown to some of the locals here. However it’s the perfect taste of the region’s famous granite rock formations for those visitors who don’t have time to go hiking at Girraween. Guests at our Motel often remark at the beauty of the lesser-known nature reserve and just how close it is to our Motel. Lucky us!
